The regular signing day has come and gone. Those who are still available have until April 1, 2022, to sign with a school, that is for Division I. For Division II schools, players have up until August 1, 2022. We take a look at a few players who are still available inside the Top 50.
<strong>[player_tooltip player_id="27574" first="Kevin" last="Thomas"] </strong>(SR) Wide Receiver 6’3 190 – Neumann & Goretti
Thomas is our highest-ranked player who has yet to find a new home. He is our 16<sup>th</sup> overall ranked player and 3<sup>rd</sup> ranked receiver. He de-committed from West Virginia back in November. All I can say is Thomas has the talent to be a really good player at the next level, but maybe there is something we don’t know about that schools do because you don’t leave a kid like this unsigned on both signing days.

<strong>[player_tooltip player_id="27661" first="Lavon" last="Johnson"]</strong> (SR) Defensive Tackle 6’4 325 – Allentown Central Catholic
Johnson is our 24<sup>th</sup> overall ranked player and 8<sup>th</sup> ranked defensive lineman. Johnson was offered by some big-time programs dating back to his junior season. Johnson and Thomas are both inside our top 30. This is very rare that two players who can make an impact are unsigned. Again, I believe there is something we don’t know, that schools do.

<strong>[player_tooltip player_id="27565" first="Lorenzo" last="Jenkins"] </strong>(SR) Wide Receiver 6’4 175 – Blackhawk HS
Jenkins is our 37<sup>th</sup> overall ranked player and 4<sup>th</sup> ranked wide receiver. Jenkins has received a few D-II offers and HBCU offers. Wherever he decides to go someone is getting one of the better pass catchers in this class, I do believe. I believe he is still weighing his options, seeing if anything better comes along as well.

<strong>[player_tooltip player_id="27597" first="Kamil" last="Foster"] </strong>(SR) Wide Receiver 6’0 190 – Bishop McDevitt HS
Foster is our 44<sup>th</sup> overall ranked player and 5<sup>th</sup> ranked receiver. Foster’s recruitment did fall after receiving MAC offers in the winter of his junior season, though he did go on a couple of visits last summer to MAC schools. In 13 games of his senior season, he was second in receptions (36), yards (907), and touchdowns (14). He did average 25.2 yards per catch, the most with 20-plus receptions. It’s interesting to see where he’ll end up.

<strong>[player_tooltip player_id="91467" first="Mason" last="Peterson"] </strong>(SR) Running Back 5’10 200 – Monsignor Bonner
Peterson is our 46<sup>th</sup> overall ranked player and 5<sup>th</sup> ranked running back. Peterson shows initial quickness and a really smooth runner with good change of direction and really good vision. He lacks overall top-end speed though. He plays high. Needs to improve getting pad level through the hole. I believed this kid was a low-level FBS player. Within the past couple of months, he’s gotten an FCS offer and a couple of D-II offers. I think he would excel as he continues to develop wherever he goes.

<strong>[player_tooltip player_id="147894" first="Tyrone" last="Sturgis"]</strong> (SR) Defensive End 6’4 200 – Imhotep Charter
Sturgis is our 50<sup>th</sup> overall ranked player and 13<sup>th</sup> ranked defensive linemen. Sturgis does not have much senior tape which is probably why he is still unsigned. He plays linebacker, but at a smaller school, he could probably play anywhere on the defensive side because he is athletic enough to do so.
